RESEARCH OF QUALITATIVE COMPOSITION OF MINERALS IN SOFT BODY FRESHWATER BIVALVE MUSSELS OF ANODONTA GENUS AND THEIR MARINE ANALOGUES – THE MUSSELS OF MYTILUS GENUS

Abstract

This article describes the research of quality of the minerals of soft body bivalve freshwater mussels of Anodonta genus compared with the investigated data on mussels of Mytilus genus, Mytilus galloprovincialis species. The possibility of using Anodonta genus clam as a complete food that provides the body with essential minerals and helps to prevent iodine deficiency. Especially rich Anodonta mussels is a kind of such minerals as iron, manganese, zinc and calcium. At this the amount of calcium and phosphorus in the Anodonta genus mussels several times exceeds their amount in mussels of Mytilus genus. Iodine almost half meets its daily needs. The consequences of iodine deficiency are threatening and cause various diseases, the manifestation of which depends on the severity and duration of the deficiency, age and physiological state of a person. It is reasonable to use mussels of Anodonta genus as a complete food that provides the body with essential minerals and helps in preventing the states of iodine deficiency. Special attention in the study of freshwater bivalve mussels of Anodonta genus and bivalves of Mytilus genus is given to the presence of heavy metals and iodine. The content of such heavy metals as cadmium and lead, which greatly reduc the potential and biological value of aquatic products is determined. Comparison of the data enables the authors to conclude that the soft body of freshwater Anodonta clam is suitable for the consumption of raw food containing micro- and macro-minerals. The content of cadmium and lead does not exceed the allowable concentrations researched in both types of aquatic organisms.
